one might say don't take things for granted...

Gloom was absolutely shy, in fact that was probably putting it mildly, the idea of having to interact with someone who wasn't her brothers or mother petrified the woman. She's managed to sort of just exist her way through her previous run-ins with strangers, and the other woman's lowered position didn't really help her spiking anxiety much. She was a little bit taller than the earthen woman which wasn't what Gloom was used to but it didn't help much either. Still she tried her best not to just drop to the ground and cry, she'd been getting better about not doing that lately at least. Y'know small steps and all that.

She nodded in response, struggling to find her voice. She still honestly didn't really want to make this any more awkward by turning around and walking away, so she might as well get to take the walk at least. "I'm Gloom." She managed softly as she stepped forward, not really wanting to take the lead but almost certain she'd drop dead of anxiety if they stayed there talking any longer. At least if they started walking they might be able to take in the scenery and maybe it would be less terrible?
